ICE Wants to Build Out a 24/7 Social Media Surveillance Team Documents show ICE plans to hire dozens of contractors to scan X, Facebook, TikTok, and other platforms to target people for deportation.

NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

One first step people should do to respond to this is start using the β€œreport a speed trap” function in Apple Maps to report where ICE is operating. Make Apple party to the attempt to protect people.

At least one other person, who identified herself on social media as Kat Abughazaleh, a former journalist also running for Congress, landed on the ground during that same protest after she was pushed by a federal law enforcement agent in a camouflage uniform wearing a full face covering, sunglasses and a helmet, video by CNN affiliate WBBM showed.

Absolutely INSANE use of passive voice in this CNN piece

Sen. Van Hollen on Kilmar Abrego Garcia: β€œThere were a lot of pollsters and pundits who said I shouldn’t go because we shouldn’t talk about immigration... It’s a false choice to say we have to only talk about the price of eggs and we can’t talk about the assaults on our freedoms.” #Persuasion2025

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

2 Teen Girls Died In a Hit-And-Run. Another Teen Faces Murder Charges.

The New York Times doesn't tell you why the alleged murderer said he sent pizzas to the victim's house just before he ran down the girl and her best friend. He said on video that he was getting revenge for social media comments about death of Charlie Kirk.

ICE says I cause assaults on ICE by reciting facts about ICE’s recent shooting but refuses to link to the thread. Only posting a picture. ICE lies and ICE hides. You can read the facts for yourselves

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

I note the ruling emphasizes at the outset the enormous factual record the court assembled, which in normal times would read as boilerplate, but in the present context feels like a preemptive rebuke of a SCOTUS increasingly disposed to hasty and conclusory interventions on Trump's behalf.

Republicans are about to shutdown the government instead of protect Americans healthcare and Ashley Hinson isn't even in Washington to try to prevent it.

They are deporting Iranians after giving them a choice between indefinite detention, deportation to a third random country or go back to Iran. Some with legal status to be here and some left after protesting the government in Iran niacouncil.org/niac-condemn...
